A survey of the breakfast habits in Europe by the European Breakfast Cereal Association shows that the primary breakfast food for 34% of Europeans is breakfast cereals. A cereal producer in Turkey believes the figure is lower for Turkey. To test this idea, she contacts a random sample of 550 Turkish residents and asks which primary breakfast food they consumed for breakfast that day. Suppose 171 replied that breakfast cereal was the primary food. Using a level of significance of 0.05, test the idea that the cereal figure is lower for Turkey.
